The North American Lutheran Seminary

The North American Lutheran Church (NALC) has partnered with Trinity Anglican Seminary to create a “Seminary Center” for the training of future NALC pastors. In a nearly unanimous vote on August 8, 2013, the Convocation of the NALC took action to establish a new North American Lutheran Seminary. This seminary is not a degree granting institution, rather, it partners with existing accredited seminaries, like Trinity, to provide sound theological education for NALC students.

Lutheran students earn their degree from Trinity Anglican Seminary, taking the core courses required in the Master of Divinity (MDiv) curriculum. For some courses they take Lutheran alternatives taught by NALC professors to ensure a solid foundation in confessional Lutheranism.

The Rev. Dr. Eric M. Riesen, is president of the North American Lutheran Seminary.

More about NALS
Trinity Anglican Seminary is the main campus for the North American Lutheran Seminary, so this is what first drew me to getting my mDiv here to get ordained in the North American Lutheran Church. I visited the campus two years ago and was amazed by how welcoming the faculty and staff were. I also was struck by the extensive knowledge of scripture and tradition of the faculty here at Trinity. Since I have arrived here as a student, I have been reminded of this all over again. I am glad I came and I am looking forward to my three years here.

The Evangelical Presbyterian Church - Presbytery of the Alleghenies

In partnership with the Presbytery of the Alleghenies of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, Trinity offers a Presbyterian Track for our Master of Divinity curriculum.
 
Our program is custom designed to meet all of the EPC’s requirements for ordination, including courses in Old Testament, New Testament, Biblical Languages, Systematic Theology, Reformed Theology, Apologetics, Leadership, Presbyterian History and Polity, Church History, Missiology, Homiletics, Evangelism/Disciple Making, and Pastoral Care and Counseling.
 
Our graduates have performed very well on ordination exams and are serving the church throughout the country.  In addition to the Evangelical Presbyterian Church (EPC), we have trained those serving in a variety of presbyterian and reformed denominations including Covenant Order Presbyterians (ECO), the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), Associate Reformed Presbyterians (ARP), and others.  Any students who are reformed and evangelical are encouraged to apply. 
 

The Rev. Dr. Rich Herbster oversees this program as the Director of Presbyterian Studies.

What I enjoyed the most was the freedom and encouragement I received from the faculty to aim much of my writing toward those topics that highlighted the distinctives of the Presbyterian perspective. I also found the Anglican way of engaging the Scriptures to be soul-nourishing and life-giving. The work that I was encouraged to do - notably in the Systematic Theology courses - prepared me so well for ordination!

Trinity has been a rich experience for me as a candidate in the EPC. I have thoroughly enjoyed learning in a theologically diverse classroom space. This diversity stretches, challenges and grows me as a Presbyterian in ways that more homogenous seminary experiences simply could not provide.
Caleb Musselman
Trinity was vital to my spiritual formation! The professors and fellow students from across a broad spectrum helped to cultivate a much deeper thirst for the Word of God of which I now work to inspire onto my flock.
Joe Rearick
Attending Trinity as a Presbyterian was one of the best decisions I ever made. Their Presbyterian track, made possible through partnership with the EPC, provided a quality, reformed education, while also broadening my theological horizon and sparking a deeper appreciation for liturgy and differing expressions of worship.
Vince Latz
Trinity Anglican Seminary has a wonderful scholarship opportunity for full-time residential students. Without their scholarship, I would not have been able to complete my MDiv degree as quickly as I did. I possibly might not have been able to start my studies without the scholarship.
